I was wondering if anyone has had any experience connecting the Nexus 9's keyboard folio to a Windows PC via Bluetooth? When I put the keyboard into pairing mode it isn't visible to my PC. My phone and tablet are both visible to my PC when their Bluetooth is turned on but it can't seem to find my keyboard.
I've looked around on a few forums and haven't seen any posts about connecting the folio to a PC so I'm not even sure if it's possible. Has anyone tried this and got it to work? Or will the folio only connect to android devices?
Thanks.

I connect my folio with my htc magic using wifi tethering. Have you try this instead the bluetooth?

The only way, for now, to have internet on the folio is through wifi.
The bluetooth stack is not complete and/or android can't use bluetooth as a client for internet. I've also searched for many hours.
Archos has made a lot of effort in enabling bluetooth tethering, but i don't know if it's an app or extra functions in the bluetooth drivers.
A little good news is, people are trying to make 3G usb sticks working on the folio.
I have been trying to get my G Tablet to connect to my computers (Windows 7 x64 and OSX 10.4.11) without success. I managed to PAIR the tablet with the computers, but I can never get them to CONNECT. After I hit the connect button, nothing happens. I want to bluetooth to transfer files wirelessly, or even stream music and share internet connections.
By the way, I am running CyanogenMod 7.0.2.

I was able to send a file from my linux desktop to the gtab... the linux box sees it as a "phone" profile, which might mean it only has a limited set of bluetooth services installed.
Wanted to bring this back up as I am having the same issues, connecting with my HTC Thunderbolt. Pairs with everything, but doesn't connect. Kind of a shame when I need BT to tether. Anyone find a fix yet?
What do you think about that?
I already have a old windows bluetooth keyboard that works with android.
I only use computer to surf the webb, write, read. Watch some youtube.
Can bluetooth mouse be used with android? Not that it's necessery, but i'm curious
Yes it can, quite easily in fact. If the bluetooth keyboard and mouse suppor the HID profile, you should be good to go. Also, if you get an MHL adapter and connect it to an HDMI display you can push your screen out to a larger one.
Is this issue already fixed that an activated Bluetooth connection slows down your WiFi? For surfing the tablet may be okay, but for me it won't replace the desktop in the near future.. There are no drivers for special devices, it's way slower and if you try serious work on a tablet... Well, prepare some relaxing tea
I bought a bluetooth dongle on Amazon (ORICO BTA 403, CSR8510 A10 chipset) and installed it on my Windows 7 x64 computer.
The dongle installs fine and works perfectly with all my older phones but not with my Xperia S running Android 4.1.2.
Basically, if I install the automatic windows driver, and pair with the phone, windows complains about no drivers for the device, and I can't do anything with it.
If I install the supplied software (CSR Harmony wireless software stack) I can pair and the Xperia S is installed properly, the various audio services work (I can stream music to PC using BT), but I still can't send or receive files, either from PC to Phone or from Phone to PC.
The connection times out after a second and gives me a connectivity error. It's like the phone refuses to connect to the PC, both when transferring and receiving.
I don't know if the phone is the problem, it seems to not work only when doing file transfers with PC, if I try to transfer files to other phones or to my mac (which has built in BT) it works fine.
Is there any way to fix this issue? Any way to troubleshoot this issue to tell if the problem comes from the phone or the dongle?
Searching with google I can't find any solution, I just get lost into a sea of bluetooth problems which have nothing to do with what I'm experiencing.
By the way, using Airdroid instead of BT is not a fix.

your problem is bare and I think you can try these two solutions out:
1- Restart your phone and check whether your problem has solved or not. 2- Restart your windows and also turn off your Antivirus and firewall and try again.

1.Its not a phone its Headphones. 2.Restart made no difference plus Antivirus/firewall not the cause, seems to be a driver problem when installing from windows update! Ta all the same.
The problem is ****ty drivers from the manufacturer. I installed Bluesoleil and it worked perfectly. Another solution is to use the Windows stack by manually installing drivers from the MS Windows Mobile Suite (or whatever it's called, I don't remember) but that only supports file transfer.
I purchased this indash Pioneer unit for large screen display of nav info using Waze or Google maps. The phone function connects OK via USB, the bluetooth connects OK for music, but the Pioneer will not recognize the phone's nav input.
Two different brand phones owned by the radio shop crew connect flawlessly to the unit via USB. They have tried repeatedly to get the X829 LeMax2 running stock Android 6.0.1 to connect, without any sign of success.
Could it be the USB-C? The two other phones are the older style USB.
Anyone have a solution?

Hi!
Do you use Android Auto?
Do you enable the connection to your Pioneer?

Thanks for the info - I had not heard about Android Auto. I tried it, and it does not recognize my Pioneer unit. It is not listed either as an accepted or rejected car.
After some experimentation, I found that the problem apparently is in the USB-C. I had thought the phone was commecting via USB, but it was using BT. A. Auto will connect via BT but not by USB.
I tried with USB set for debug or not, for MTP or not, but nada all ways. The Pioneer will not connect via the USB-C. A thumb drive of music with the old style USB connects perfectly, so it is not a defective USB connection in the Pioneer but the C format. HELP!!!
